Lyrics
Verse 1
I love Your kingdom, Lord, The house of Your abode, The Church our blest Redeemer saved With His own precious blood.
Verse 2
I love Your Church, O God! Her walls before Thee stand Dear as the apple of Thine eye, And graven on Thy hand.
Verse 3
Beyond my highest joy I prize its heavenly ways, Its sweet communion, solemn vows, Its hymns of love and praise.
Verse 4
Sure as Your truth shall last, To Zion shall be given The brightest glories earth can yield, And brighter bliss of heaven.
